So, spill it! What are your pet peeves? 014 It can be something that always annoys you in general, but also a "first world problem" that bothers you right now.
For me, I hate it so much that my necklaces always flip/turn around... Everytime I look in a mirror, the pendant is flipped and the lock is in the front, so irritating. With some necklaces I can help it with a trick, but some just seem to have a willl of their own.
Also, yesterday my husband took a picture of me at the restaurant, and my forearms look HUGE, I look like Popeye The Sailor Man. I'm going to photoshop anchors on them.

Those little "Baby on Board" things that people put in the back window of their cars
Why?
What is the point of them? All I can think of is, if there is a crash - don't forget to look for a baby? (You think an empty kiddy seat might be the first clue?)
Plus I think they leave them up there all the time, not just when there actually is a "baby on board".

oh heck yeah those are stupid, the original purpose was like you guessed for emergency services to know there was a more venerable child in the vehicle if it crashed, but too many people think it’s to advertise there’s a baby in the car.

neesy I always thought those signs were supposed to get people to drive more carefully; "Be extra careful around this car, or you'll be a baby killer". I'm not sure if that is the actual purpose of those signs, but if it is, it's still incredibly hypocrite and annoying. You should be careful no matter what, adult lives are lives too. pegasus216 That's nasty, I'm sorry he gives you so much grief.

The Inventor of this Signs just wanted to caution other Drivers.
"Hey don't be such an agressive Driver, we have a Baby on Board"
But today, you can get this Stickers with the Name of your Baby/Child and you can read Marcus/Rick/Sindy/Nadine etc. on Board
I don't wanna know the Kids Name, of a complete Stranger

I cannot stand it when someone spits in public - it happens often when I'm driving. Stopped at a red light and someone opens their car door and you can hear them hack it up and then spit on the ground. Sometimes it's a long slow stream that they didn't even have to hack - their nastiness just pours out of them.
Can't stand it.
And texting and driving. Some idiot in front of me will suddenly be going 35 on the interstate and when I go to pass them I realize they're not even looking at the road - they are texting or reading a text. Nevermind the lives around you, please send that urgent message! OMG - those people. They're going to kill someone.
We need a new world.

Where are the cops when you need them, eh?
p.s. I detest the spitting as well, especially if I see a 'young lady' doing it on the street - ewww. Well it's bad for anyone but I was hoping women would have more class than to do that. We don't have a 'red face' smiley yet so I'll settle for this one a234

It’s against the law, but that doesn’t stop people from doing it. It’s real concerning looking over and seeing someone on their phone, especially if they have kids in the car, I see it too often.

YES! I'm so allergic to this too. People even do it on bicycles. Just get the hell out of your bloody phone bubble for once! fernsehen-smilie_011 (<--- TV = phone)

Texting and driving is also illegal here - I think it's around a 1000 dollar or 1200 dollar fine. (So I have been told).
I will talk on my phone occasionally but only on speaker phone (that is still legal).

Talking with speaker phone is legal here too. 1000 $, that has to hurt. Would be great if we had this kind of fine

I looked it up too, over here it's €230 for "holding a phone while driving". Considering how many lives this can destroy, it's quite low...

It's more of an obsession than a pet peeve. People that vandalize cemetery's. It makes me crazy. What kind of a brain dead moron would do this? It should be a felony with the same fines/prison time and parole. I go off the deep end into a tirade when I hear about this happening. It's a vicious thing to do and there is no forgiveness in my book for this wicked behaviour. Tipping over tombstones, spray painting graffiti -- what are these degenerates thinking?? The loved ones of those resting in these cemeteries are grieving and to desecrate like this causes more pain to their loss. To those who commit this act, well they are person(s) with no soul, no heart and no respect. How dare they.
(Told you it makes me crazy )

I agree with that, Sandy.
People have basically lost their minds with all the stuff that is going on lately.
